    I am a beginner to woodwork, the main test I have with this bundle ruclips.net/user/postUgkxTNB_zFBSnTo_O1PqfVUwgi7ityw0JlKt is that I think that its hard to settle on a choice of the plan and outline to use as there are a large portion of them there. Nonetheless, I like the simple stride to step directions laid out there.

      Training helps a great deal. I came at CNC programming from the opposite route, going through a trade school program. As such, the focus was on taking the completed designs, and how to program your tool paths. So to me, that end of it is actually the easy stuff, whereas the design end is where I struggle.

      I was hired at 17 by a sign manufacturing company and then assigned as the CNC/Plotter operator because I was very skilled in computer programming and I quickly figured the software. No one else in the company (~40 people) knew how to operate it except the owner.

      Welder here. The people that think CNC is difficult can't really produce anything. Anyone can put in the time to learn CNC. I was thrown on Water jets, laser, plasma, CNC mills and CNC lathes. Programming was simple. My knowledge of metallurgy in welding made it easy.
      Engineers are supposedly people that build things based upon scientific principles. I call BS on that. Most engineers I've worked with from aerospace to automotive don't build anything. They push buttons and get paid to make things more complex than they have to be.

      25 years ago I was using a CNC from Gerber Scientific in the signage industry. You imported your design into the CNC software, told it what size tool you were using and how deep you wanted to go and it calculated everything. It even did auto-nesting of all your different pieces to be cut out. This was on Windows 3.1 - how has using a CNC gone backwards where it's so much work to set up the path??

    I'm a retired cabinetmaker and there is little or nothing that is made without pushing buttons, machines are the an investment needed for any joinery company if they want profit and remain in business.
    At one time the biggest outlay was the cost of labour, now it's materials so errors must be minimised and materials not wasted.
    You have skills, that can't be disputed, the balance needed includes vision of design, anyone can copy a bench or make pallet wood garden seats, the skills required when starting from an idea and ending up with a beautiful piece of furniture are far more than most people can imagine and not everyone has the skills for this kind of work.

      comparatively, CNC is easy though. Think about the alternative; having to do that design completely by hand. The CNC is faster, easier, more precise, and less stressful. I’m not saying that makes him any less talented, I’m just saying that people’s perception of it being easy isn’t entirely wrong. Just a little wrong.

    I find that most people who criticize another are wannabes who have poor self- esteem and can't stand the fact that you do the amazing things you do, and are humble about it in the process. I love the fact that you are secure enough in who you are, and the abilities you possess ...and the honesty to show your processes, warts, mistakes, and all, showing us how you creatively "fix" the situation! Yes indeed! People with no sense of self can't do that, and hate those who do. True is, jealousy can be really ugly. I wasn't even interested in making furniture, but watched just one of your videos and was both amazed at your ability and processes you go through, that I'm hooked. You are an incredible artist, specializing in woodworking, who is intelligent enough to use today's technology to make your ideas come alive! (I have been a multi medium artist for years, and am in awe of your work.) Seriously, there is no reason to mention those few who try to cut you down, and criticize your work! LOL! Ignore them, and let them fester! ONWARD to your next creation!

And thousands love and appreciate your talent.

    most of the people that say he has no skill simply have no idea what they're talking about.
    firstly, apart from the cnc machine, assembling products to a great quality is a skill in itself. and is something you learn over time, ive been a cabinet maker for nearly 7 years, i have a lot to learn and improve on, but im good at what i do, through my experiences, assembling and finishing products needs a lot of practice. you can make something that has bespoke and flawless pieces look off or even ugly if not fitted right, so the fact that he can do it to a good level says something, this is an observation i have picked up from watching him build, stuff he probably doesnt even know he's doing as they have become muscle memory or second nature
    secondly, i recently had a chance to use a fiend's cnc router, and the fact that he said "hah go on, make something" to me after i thought it didnt look difficult, and that i just sat there looking at the screen not knowing what to do, kinda tells you there is a skill level to this. if you have to look a someone for guidance that tells you that theres something to learn.

    My neighbor though that it was relatively simple for me to run the cnc plasma table I built. I had explained some of what goes into the designs and cad/cam work. It wasn't until he saw all the details in person (while I was cutting a part and changing cut parameters) that he realized how complex it can be. I used and grew my skill to build and learn the cnc plasma table and continue to improve my skill with cutting different materials and thicknesses while trying to get better efficiency and quality. CNC capabilities improved my skill level as a fabricator and welder. A CNC machine isn't all that different from a power saw vs. hand saw or router vs. planes, rasps, and sandpaper. It is a more efficient tool that still requires skill to use and master. Some people cheat with a straight edge to rip plywood for sheeting a building, but I can usually freehand +/- 1/16" with my milwaukee cordless circular saw. Most elementary school kids probably draw better than I do and I suck at free handing a plasma torch or router. CNC allows me to use my other skills of learning, building, computer work, and attention to detail to make the machine do what my hands and brain can't. Working smarter and using technology beats working harder or not being able to build to my potential if I didn't use CNC. It also makes it faster which matters when you make part or all of your living working with your hands.

    I work with CnC programming everyday and let me just say, people will use one machine for 25 years and still run a program slowly the first time they use it to be sure there isn't a random "aand the drillbit is halfway through the piece before starting rotation" moment, the amount of knowledge that goes into just getting the pieces to look clean and nice is insane

    as a woodworker whom has dabbled in the cnc world, it definitely takes a different type of skill/talent to make builds. infinitely scalable creativity since you aren't limited by the tools. With that said, it would show even more skill from a strictly woodworking perspective if you could do all of that by hand. I definitely don't hold that against you and the project looks awesome!

    Man, the day I used a CNC...I understood the work that goes into it. As a mechanical engineer I already knew it, but after using CNC my respect for those who work on it increased.
    Also, that's only one part of this project. Imagine the skill required for the rest. I can't even imagine it.

    That was easy! I love how you incorporated the CNC with the woodwork. I also like the pearl inlay with all your builds, I see that's your signature thing. When I make a project my signature is wood burning of some kind. I wish I had a CNC but my shop is my front porch and the living room of my one bedroom apt. I am also in a wheelchair. My goal is to one day have a small shop where I don't have to always roll out the tools to use them. Thank you for this video. I loved it.
